The Pilgrim's Progress by John Bunyan

Then a hand came to him, with some of the leaves of the Tree of Life —
which Christian took, and applied to the wounds which he had received
in the battle, and was healed immediately. He also sat down to eat the
bread, and to drink from the bottle which were given to him at the
Palace Beautiful.
So being refreshed, Christian continued his journey, with his sword
drawn in his hand; for he thought, "I do not know but that some other
enemy may be nearby." But he met with no other attack from Apollyon
through the remainder of the valley.
THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH

Now, at the end of the Valley of Humiliation, was The Valley of the Shadow
of Death. Christian needed to go through it, because it was the only way
to the Celestial City. Now this valley was a very solitary place. The
prophet Jeremiah thus describes it: "A wilderness, a land of deserts, and
of pits, a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, a land that no
man" (but a Christian) "passed through, and where no man dwelt.”
Now here Christian had a more difficult battle than in his fight with
Apollyon — as you shall see by what follows.

Valley of the Shadow of Death, that two men, hurrying back, met him.
They were children of those who brought back an evil report of the
good land of Canaan. Christian then questioned as follows:
CHRISTIAN: "Where are you going?”
